Timid and shy clouds touch the ground intruding upon their domain in the sky not speaking, I think, but feeling instead the impacted wisdom contained there within. Drawn by the feel and the need to be near they gather in front and loiter behind seeking the knowledge denied for so long on repetitive journeys into pleasure and pain. But they can’t break through beliefs of this time or reach into the core and extract energy to sustain and maintain past values, ideas, once vivid and bright in the darkest of nights. On the outskirts they hover close but too far from the spirit of fire that makes life worthwhile bubbling and boiling beneath surface smiles and below, far below, free conscious recall. And the clouds drift on by unaware and too proud to admit that perhaps they missed by a mile the reason for such a collision in sky and the ultimate purpose of such an event. Like a cloud I too hover before moving on and wonder out loud what I could have found if born in a time when minds could collide and extract the truth from deep down inside. Today I touch ground but tomorrow I’ll fly and we’ll meet again one day in the sky! Helen / 25 May 2004 |

Today I touch ground but tomorrow I’ll fly and we’ll meet again one day in the sky! A meeting on the ground would be better. As always well written. |

Thank you, exhale, for the read - glad you enjoyed. Time Prophet - Thank you! The ground? Yes, you're absolutely right - comes from knowing a thing or two I guess. |

Thanks, passing shadows. What I saw was awesome too even though only a second hand view. |
